Wicked. Just plain wicked.
According to the LA Times, George Lucas is planing on making a live action Star Wars TV series. The only down side for me is I don’t watch TV, so hopefully it’ll be on iTunes or downloadable somehow. Worst case I’ll have to wait for the DVD of the first season or whatever.
Now I know people will say “they’re milking it”, but this is Star Wars man – new Star Wars stuff.
I’ve seen a few Sci-fi shows that are on TV and the vast majority of them are not very good. In my opinion, they don’t quite create the world that Star Wars does. I wind up thinking “these are grown men dressed up with latex on their heads in the back lot of a TV studio. That must be embarrassing”. Nothing has sucked me in to the point where I forget I am watching a show – well maybe Firefly, that was a pretty good show.
And if you fear Jarjar: I had the privilege of going to Skywalker ranch like a year ago or so, and in one area they had a big life size replica of Jarjar encased in carbonite – I think it was symbolic :).
Rambling aside, I am really excited to see what the show is like.
